[0050] The present invention discloses a thermochemically coupled CO2 reduction fuel production energy storage and release system, comprising an energy storage system and an energy release system. The energy storage system includes a photovoltaic power curtailment unit, a thermochemical energy storage reactor, a water electrolyzer, a carbon dioxide storage tank A, a hydrogen storage tank, an oxygen storage tank, a carbon dioxide to methanol production device, and a methanol storage tank. The energy release system includes a methanol combustion and heating device, a carbon dioxide storage tank B, and a thermochemical energy release reactor connected in sequence. The methanol combustion and heating device and the thermochemical energy release reactor are used for energy release and heating. The photovoltaic power curtailment unit converts the curtailed electricity generated by renewable energy into chemical energy for storage, thereby avoiding wasteful curtailment and improving the utilization rate of renewable energy.

[0054] Figure 2 The present invention provides a configuration method for a thermochemically coupled CO2 reduction fuel production energy storage and release system. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0055] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the following is a further detailed description with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. That is, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.
[0056] The detailed description of the embodiment of the present invention provided in the following figures is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely represents a selected embodiment of the present invention. All other embodiments derived by those skilled in the art based on the figures and embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0057] It should be noted that the terms "comprises", "includes" or any other variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, element, method, article or apparatus that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to the process, element, method, article or apparatus.
[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides an energy storage and release system for thermochemically coupled CO2 reduction to produce fuel, including two parts: an energy storage system and an energy release system.
[0059] The energy storage system includes a photovoltaic curtailment unit, a thermochemical energy storage reactor, a water electrolyzer, a carbon dioxide storage tank A, a hydrogen storage tank, an oxygen storage tank, a carbon dioxide-to-methanol plant, and a methanol storage tank. The photovoltaic curtailment unit is electrically connected to the thermochemical energy storage reactor and the water electrolyzer to provide power to these two systems. The outlet of the thermochemical energy storage reactor is connected to the inlet pipeline of carbon dioxide storage tank A. The hydrogen outlet of the water electrolyzer is connected to the inlet pipeline of the hydrogen storage tank, and the oxygen outlet of the water electrolyzer is connected to the inlet pipeline of the oxygen storage tank. The outlet pipelines of carbon dioxide storage tank A and the hydrogen storage tank are respectively connected to the reaction gas inlet of the carbon dioxide-to-methanol plant. The product outlet of the carbon dioxide-to-methanol plant is connected to the inlet pipeline of the methanol storage tank. The energy release system includes a methanol combustion heating plant, carbon dioxide storage tank B, and a thermochemical energy release reactor, all connected in sequence. The methanol combustion heating plant and the thermochemical energy release reactor are used to release energy and provide heat. The fuel inlet of the methanol combustion heating equipment is connected to the outlet pipeline of the methanol storage tank, and the combustion air inlet of the methanol combustion heating equipment is connected to the outlet pipeline of the oxygen storage tank.
[0060] During the energy storage process, the photovoltaic curtailment unit provides power to the thermochemical energy storage reactor and water electrolyzer. The thermochemical energy storage reactor undergoes the CaCO₃-CaO+CO₂ energy storage reaction, with the generated carbon dioxide being piped into carbon dioxide storage tank A for storage. The water electrolyzer undergoes an electrolysis reaction, with the generated hydrogen and oxygen being piped into the hydrogen and oxygen storage tanks, respectively, for storage. Carbon dioxide storage tank A and the hydrogen storage tank provide reaction gases to the carbon dioxide-to-methanol plant, where methanol is synthesized. The resulting methanol is piped into the methanol storage tank for storage.
[0061] During the energy release process, the methanol and oxygen storage tanks provide reaction gases to the methanol combustion and heating equipment. Methanol is burned in the equipment, and the resulting carbon dioxide is piped into carbon dioxide storage tank B for storage and heat. Carbon dioxide storage tank B provides reaction gases to the thermochemical energy release reactor, where the energy release reaction (CaO + CO2 – CaCO3) occurs, providing heat.
[0062] The present invention combines a thermochemical heat storage and release system with methanol combustion for heating, ensuring reliable heating through dual heat source complementary heating. This achieves efficient coupling of energy storage and fuel preparation, improving energy utilization efficiency. It utilizes abandoned photovoltaic power for thermochemical energy storage reactions and electrolytic hydrogen and oxygen production, achieving efficient utilization of abandoned photovoltaic power and avoiding energy waste. It converts carbon dioxide and hydrogen into methanol for storage, realizing resource utilization of carbon dioxide and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Combusting methanol provides heat for thermochemical energy release reactions, achieving an efficient cycle of energy storage and release, and improving energy storage density and storage time. The entire system process requires no external energy input, and only utilizes abandoned photovoltaic power to achieve energy storage and fuel preparation, reducing energy consumption and costs.
[0063] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also provides a configuration method of the system, which is as follows:
[0064] Step 1: Based on historical data and on-site surveys, the average PV curtailment power Pq, the new heating demand load Wt, and the average outdoor daily ambient temperature Ta are obtained based on time, as shown in Table 1.
[0065] Table 1
[0066]
[0067] Based on basic data, the requirements for thermochemical energy storage and release systems, water electrolysis hydrogen production systems, and CO2 reduction fuel production systems are configured and analyzed, including:
[0068] 1. Determine the rated power and storage time of the thermochemical energy storage reactor and the CO2-to-methanol equipment. The reaction occurring in the thermochemical energy storage reactor is: CaCO3—CaO+CO2ΔH=178kJ / mol
[0069] Assuming that 1 mol of CO2 is generated, 178 kJ = 0.05 kWh of energy is consumed.
[0070] The energy consumed by the corresponding water electrolysis system is as follows:
[0071] Assume that a water electrolysis system consumes 5 kWh to produce 1 standard cubic meter of hydrogen. One standard cubic meter of hydrogen is equal to 89.3 grams. 22.4 liters of hydrogen is 1 mol of hydrogen, which is equal to 2 grams. (1000 / 22.4 * 2 = 89.3 grams.) Therefore, the electricity required to produce 3 mol of H2 is: 6 grams / 89.3 grams * 5 kWh = 0.34 kWh.
[0072] The energy consumed by the corresponding CO2 methanol production equipment is as follows:
[0073] CO2(g)+3H2(g)=CH3OH+H2O△H=-50KJ / mol
[0074] This reaction is an exothermic reaction, so the energy consumed by the reaction is not considered for the time being.
[0075] Therefore, in the abandoned power recovery stage, the rated power P of the thermochemical energy storage reactor is r With water electrolyzer rated power P H2 Almost satisfies the following relationship: 7P r =P H2 .
[0076] Obtain the average photovoltaic power curtailment per hour Pq from Table 1. So far, the average daily photovoltaic power curtailment Pt is calculated based on the average photovoltaic power curtailment per hour, and the rated power of the water electrolyzer P is obtained. H2 and the rated power P of the thermochemical energy storage reactor r , satisfying the following relationship: Pt≥P r +P H2 .
[0077] Specifically, Pt = (Pq0 + Pq1 + Pq2 + ... + Pq24) / 24h
[0078] In the heat storage stage, it is necessary to satisfy Pt≥Pr+PH2, and because 7P r =P H2 , so Pt≥8Pr, so Pr and P can be calculated respectively H2 .
[0079] According to the average daily photovoltaic power curtailment Pt, the storage time hc of the thermochemical energy storage reactor and the operating time h of the electrolyzer are determined. H2 Among them, hc is the total time that Pq is in the range of 0.6Pt to Pt, h H2 It is the total time that Pq is in the range of 0.8Pt to Pt.
[0080] According to the gas demand of the thermochemical energy storage reactor and CO2 methanol production equipment, the volumes of the CO2 storage tank, H2 storage tank, O2 storage tank and methanol storage tank (VCO2, VH2, VO2, Vm) are determined;
[0081] Determine the rated power Pf and operating time hf of the carbon dioxide to methanol equipment.
[0082] Where hf = hc, Pf = P H2 / 3.
[0083] 2. Determine the heating power and duration of the thermochemical energy release reactor and methanol combustion heating equipment:
[0084] Based on the average load of the new heating demand Wt and the average daily outdoor ambient temperature Ta, the total heating capacity W1 of the thermochemical energy release reactor and the methanol combustion heating equipment is determined, satisfying W1 = Wt*24.
[0085] The reaction in the thermochemical energy release reactor: CaO + CO2 - CaCO3 ΔH = 178 kJ / mol
[0086] 1 mol of CO2 participating in the reaction will release 178kJ=0.05kWh of energy.
[0087] CH3OH+3 / 2O2—CO2+2H2OΔH=726.51kJ / mol
[0088] 1 mol of CH3OH participating in the reaction will release 726.51kJ=0.20kWh of energy.
[0089] Therefore, the rated power P of the thermochemical energy release reactor is r1 Methanol combustion heating equipment P m Almost satisfies the following relationship: 4P r1 =P m .
[0090] In order to ensure that CaO fully reacts, the power matching between the thermochemical energy release reactor and the methanol combustion heating equipment should have a certain degree of redundancy. The redundancy
[0091] According to the temporal variation pattern of the average load of the new heating demand, the optimal heating time ho of the system is determined according to the principle of economic optimization, thereby calculating the total heating power P1 of the thermochemical energy release reactor and the methanol combustion heating equipment.
[0092] P1=W1 / ho;
[0093] Among them, ho is the total time that Wt is in the range of 0.7W1 to W1.
[0094] According to P1, we can get P r1 and P m The specific formula is as follows:
[0095] P1=P r1 +P m , P m =4P r1 *φ, where redundancy 1≤φ≤2.
[0096] The redundancy setting allows the system to adjust flexibly under different loads and improve stability.
[0097] This invention integrates multiple energy storage methods, combining thermochemical and chemical fuel storage to meet different needs, such as heat supply and power storage. This multi-energy complementary design may improve the overall utilization rate of the system and reduce the limitations of a single energy storage method.
[0098] We also need to consider practical application scenarios. For example, in areas with abundant solar energy but insufficient grid capacity, waste electricity can be used to store energy while also meeting heating needs. This solves the problem of waste electricity and provides thermal energy, killing two birds with one stone. Regarding environmental protection, CO2 is converted into methanol, reducing emissions. Simultaneously, the CO2 generated by methanol combustion is recycled, forming a closed loop and reducing the carbon footprint.
[0099] In terms of economic efficiency, the configuration method determines the heating duration based on the principle of economic optimization, which may optimize operating costs and improve the feasibility of the system. At the same time, the recycling of materials, such as calcium carbonate and calcium oxide, reduces consumable costs and improves the economic efficiency of the system.
[0100] System flexibility may also be considered, such as adjusting operating hours based on changes in photovoltaic power curtailment, adapting to varying weather conditions and electricity demand, and improving system reliability and adaptability. Furthermore, methanol, as an energy storage medium, is easy to store and transport, suitable for long-distance transmission, and may play a role in regional energy systems.
[0101] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the present invention can still be modified or replaced by equivalents. Any modification or equivalent replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be covered by the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
